Comments:
I have not been able to find a marriage record for Jean Smith and Alex Gatherer, assuming married around 1760. I found a number of Jean Smiths born in Elgin, Moray, the most likely ones possibly born on 3 Dec 1744, 13 Jul 1740 and 23 Jan 1737. In the last case parents are named as John Smith and Janet Gallan. Parentage not shown on other records. Source ScotsOrigins network.

The birth record I have chosen for Jean Smith is purely because she named two of her children after the names of Parents here George & Margaret. In fact. Margaret was her oldest daughter. I have no other evidence to support her parentage as there are a number of them who could qulaify. there is a list of them included in the pictures.
